A New Bike Lane That Could Save Lives and Make Cycling More Popular

The Elevated cycle concept is centrally based on the notion that junctions are complex danger and momentum kill zones.  So its very pleasing to see this small scale approach to re-thinking intersections.

To be honest, no elevated cycle scheme system is going to be 'complete' (100% coverage of all destinations) so it will always have to work in conjuntion with some shared-at-grade system. This looks like an excellent tactical way of doing that. I hope someone tries it out.
